1946 Mercury coupe clear ohio title notarized and ready to be signed over. Flathead v8 turns over but backfires when attempting to start, that's all I know about the engine condition. Im not sure if its a timing issue, valve issue, or maybe compression? Car would be a good winter project. It is fairly solid but will require some patches on the driver side floor as well as some of the lower areas of the car. Doors close nicely without sagging. Mostly complete so it could be restored.or build a rat rod. car has a nice patina. Would make a cool survivor style driver. The nearly impossible to find grill and dash is intact. I noticed that it has a different rear bumper, the driver side door trim doesn't match the rest( I assume its a ford trim pc). also the running boards have been replaced with ford coupe running boards but I do have the Mercury trim that can be swapped. radiator has a dent from a barn beam that fell on the old hood at some point during its years of storage. current hood is from Nebraska and is very nice(cost was $300) I removed the old hood hinges and they are in the trunk. It appears that a backyard bodyman pop riveted some tin inside of the rear wheel wells in an attempt to make inner fenders liners, I have taken photos from inside the trunk to show that the tin on the bottom wasn't hiding anything major. I have too many projects and could use the some cash to complete some of the ones that are further along. I don't want to see this car sit outside all winter. please don't bid if you don't intend to buy. email me with any questions or to set up a time to view it before bidding if you would like. buyer is responsible for picking up the vehicle. I live in the country so the car can be stored for awhile until shipping can be arranged AS LONG AS IT IS PAID IN FULL first. I will gladly assist with loading. |

NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder
Fri, 11 Jul 2014There may be more steering woes for the Ford Crown Victoria. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary evaluation into the Crown Vic and Mercury Grand Marquis from the 2004 to 2007 model years and the Mercury Marauder for the 2004 and 2005 model years because the steering shaft can jam. The issue could potentially affect an estimated 500,000 vehicles.
According to the regulator, there is a possibility that the driver's side heat shield for the exhaust manifold can rust, dislodge, and then wedge into the steering shaft. If this occurs, it leads to a situation where the driver can no longer control the car.
NHTSA has received five complaints of this happening, including one alleged case with an injury. In that situation, the car was driving onto the highway, lost control and rolled over. One occupant was hurt in the accident.
Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman
Wed, 17 Nov 2010Jill Wagner has officially given up her crown as the queen of Mercury. With the Ford middle child on its way to the scrap heap, Wagner no longer has any automotive hardware to promote. Given her varied talents, we wouldn't be surprised to see her pick up where she left off with another automaker.
And here you thought you'd never be upset about Mercury's passing.
Thanks for the tip, Gregg!
